An exciting series of Torah Live lectures is being offered in Detroit entitled The Jewish Success System. The multimedia presentations designed by Dan Roth and his team, are Anger, Living the American Dream, and Crossing the Finish Line.. For more info, call (248) JUDASIM (583-2476) or send an email to Rabbi Burnham - leiby101@yahoo.com.

Rabbi Leiby Burnham recently joined the Torah Live team. He works with the Theodore and Jean Weiss Partners in Torah Program of Yeshiva Beth Yehudah and runs Jewish educational programs at the Wayne State, and Oakland University.  He h received his rabbinical training at the Sh’or Yoshuv Institute and his Masters in Social Work at Wurzweiller.

Other than studying and teaching, Rabbi Burnham loves snowboarding, talking “the market,” and playing basketball. He lives in Detroit with his wife (an ICU nurse) and their three daughters, Orah, Shifra, and Rachel.

Torah Live had the pleasure of giving the Crossing the Finish Line presentation to FZY / Young Judea, after which the students sat with their mentors for a one-on-one discussion about how to actualize their potential. Menachem Salasnik, the program coordinator, wrote, “Thanks again for what was an excellent presentation and what the students felt was a brilliant springboard for them starting their mitzvah.”

Rabbi Yosef Tropper deilvered the Crossing the Finish Line presentation to yeshiva students in Baltimore.  50 people attended and the audience was great!

Torah Live gave its first talk to JEWEL this morning. Bridging the culture gap between LA and Jerusalem is no small feat and yet these ladies have taken it in their stride. It was inspiring to meet such a highly motivated group of students and I hope the lessons we learned from the 4 animals in the Crossing the Finish Line help you reach your dreams. Keep learning and growing!

“It was very different from any other lecture I have had about Judaism and I liked it because since it was different, I was engaged! Really captivating”

“The presentation was well made and the audio visuals were terrific. They helped illustrate the point beautifully. Aish LA would greatly benefit from your presentation.”  Sola Rose Malka
